The Lost Book of Elizabeth Barton
Description
In the shadowed English countryside, a promising archival find thrusts a historian into the spotlight—and into danger. When Alison Sage uncovers a long-lost manuscript tied to Elizabeth Barton, the Reformation-era prophetess whose condemned visions once toppled powerful lives, she’s invited to an exclusive gathering of scholars at a crumbling manor near the priory where Barton lived. What begins as a week of meticulous research curdles into a murder mystery, as the house, the local legend of hidden treasure, and the competing ambitions of the Codex Consortium turn every conversation into a potential clue. Jennifer N. Brown blends dual timelines with sharp academic intrigue, exploring faith, power, and the peril of interpreting the past—where truth can be as dangerous as prophecy.
